Our costumes can't be beat.....(sorry, always have that dumb Dora song in my head when I think of Halloween costumes. )


So what are you and/or your kiddos being for Halloween?



My daughter settled on being a pretty witch. Her costumes is black and pink. I know, shocker! I was happy she didn't want to be a princess again.

Makenna decided to be Daphne from Scooby Doo.

Jillian wants to be a cat...again. She is even said she'll wear last years costume. Jacob is going as Jango Fett (Star Wars). Little Owen is going to be a pumpkin.


I have a sister who is getting married on Halloween and has invited us all to wear costumes for the reception. So my dh is going as Darth Vader. I am still hunting for something. Fun fun!!

Kaitlyn (5) is going to be a kangaroo complete with a baby in the pouch and Emily (5) will be a cowgirl riding a horse. Thanks to Goodwill and their wonderful costume selection! $15.00 each...and they will be WARM!

The boyfriend is going in his Lego Man costume again this year (if you've seen my halloween pages, you'll see how crazy that costume is!) and I'm going as a biker chick with some "fake" leather chaps and vest. haha. Guys always love the chaps!

Quinn wants to be French fries. Yes, French fries. I'm waiting on an auction to end on eBay today where I hopefully win this darn costume so I don't have to make one. I have an idea for making one, but I can see it involving many hours to complete! This is the first year she's came up with an idea herself, so she's pretty excited about it.
I love the pink & black witch! Too bad Q didn't want to be that...

Ellie wants to be Ariel. Im kinda bummed because I wanted her to be something different, but oh well. Im not going to argue with her over it. I found an adorable costume online that is a little bit on the classy side - lol, like ariel can be classy!

My son hasn't picked anything out yet... He is waiting for us to go to the store to do that lol... guess I need to get my butt in gear before everything is gone.

Well, I was supposed to go out with my friend Sarah, but they changed my schedule and I now have to work. So I don't think I'm going out this year (which is ok with me since we really don't have the $ for it anyway)

Mine is going to be a princess....wait she is that everyday! LOL We don't dress up anymore we just have lots of fun making treat bags for the kiddos that visit us:)

They have a kangaroo costume? Bella loves kangaroos and picked that as her animal when she wrote her report last year. That's a cute idea that you don't see all of the time.



LOL to the french fries! That's funny, Sarah.



I was so happy she settled for the witch. She wanted to be a mermaid and had picked out an $80 costume from a magazine. Are you kidding me? That's not including another $50 for accessories that they have. It was a nice costume but are you kidding me? I looked online and couldn't find another mermaid costume in her size. Apparently they don't make mermaid costumes for older girls.

I'm gonna be a "woodland fairy." It's a super-cute costume that I got online last year after Halloween for a steal. I'm decorating it with leaves and various scrapbooking supplies.

She is a size 10 so I doubt your dd's costume would fit but I appreciate the offer!!!:-D



We are supposed to have a designer Goodwill around here. Might have to find out where and go and browse. Thanks for the tip.

Ahhhhh I love Halloween! I just wish I was brave enough to dress up too!


Cole is going to be an X Wing Star Fighter from Star Wars. He wanted to be INdiana Jones again, but I could only find the same costume he was last year, and I am not a fan of buying the same thing just a different size....so I bribed him into something else. LOL
